Your cable management could use some work.

[Emperor_Piehead]

tidy up the cables and get some zip ties. Also I would put the rad fan as an exhaust and put one of the top fans in the front if you can.

Nice build I think you should take the rear fan controller off, and that motherboard has weird PCI-e slot spacing

[Dunhamrobbie]

Nice. You might wanna fix the wires. route them properly through the back?

I got most of them tied down on the back but there is very little room for them behind the motherboard tray. I had to push the 24 pin out to make it fit properly. I will try to work on it though.

Nice stuff. Might just want tidy up the cables a bit more like everyone else said. But really good

[WoodenMarker]

Manage dem cables.

Yeah the mobo is weird it says its axt but it is skinnyer than the places for atx stand offs in the case. I saved like 50 bucks cause it was in a combo deal though.

Not too bad. You should sort you your cables a bit and maybe mount the SSD in the back if you have the space and get rid of the cage then you should have one nice clean build

I have to leave the drive cage in for the 1 tb drive(it hasent showed up yet) when it comes i will pull it apart and fix the cables.

Fair enough :P

Or i could just mount the hdd in the back im sure that would work. Lol

I never liked the idea of mounting a HDD verticaly personally.

Bro I was 12 when I learned about logic gates and osiclators on cpu architecture and built my first computer, you will do better then even me.

[Arshdeep]

I heard AMD is giving up on the fx series, not to be any kind of dan boy but the 8350 had a really good run agaist the 3570K, 3770K and the 3820, espesily with streaming and whem you turn up things like Anti Alizing Technolgies like that which filter the screen, the extra cores actully come in hand and the architecture goes to work. anyway I oarder a ivy bridge oc parts after haswell arive the weeks after, Only thing I regreat is the audio on haswell mobo and other features. Gaming is no prob. Good luck. Can you please post pics of the desk keyboard and pc once everything is done, I wanna basicly remodel my setup and can use some visual help.

You could get a 5.25" to 3.5" to mount the hdd up in an optical drive bay and mount the SSD behind the motherboard tray.  You should also run the front IO under the motherboard along with the fan controller cables to make it look cleaner. Zip tie all of those black cables near the front of the case together and just barely tuck it near the edge of the motherboard tray.  I will follow to see updates
